Triacylglycerol (TAG) production in the microspore derived (MD) cell
suspension culture ofBrassica napus L. cv Jet Neuf was enhanced when the sucrose
concentration in the growth medium was increased from 2 to 14 % (w/v). ...

Habitat loss and fragmentation can affect the persistence of populations by reducing connectivity
and restricting the ability of individuals to disperse across landscapes. Dispersal
corridors promote population connectivity ...

In this article we examine a Generalized Uncertainty Principle which differs from the
Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle by terms linear and quadratic in particle momenta, as
proposed by the authors in an earlier paper. ...

The fundamental physical description of Nature is based on two mutually incompatible theories: Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity. Their unification in a theory of Quantum Gravity (QG) remains one of the main challenges ...

In this work we explore the self-adjointness of the GUP-modified momentum and Hamiltonian oper-
ators over different domains. In particular, we utilize the theorem by von-Newmann for symmetric
operators in order to ...

I have isolated and characterized a recessive mutation in the Forked (FKD) gene that results in the abnormal initiation of vascular bundles in the foliar organs, such that the apices of the vascular bundles initiate freely. ...

Agrobacterium tumefaciens has been adopted to become a greatest tool for plant genetic engineering. Since Agrobacteria predominantly integrate single copy of the transgene into the nuclear genome, the transgene expression ...

Both morphological and genetic evidence support a hybridization event between a Boreal Chickadee (Poecile hudsonicus)
and a Black-capped Chickadee (Poecile atricapillus) in Atlantic Canada. Plumage of the hybrid was ...

My thesis examines the similar intersections of hybridity that are embodied in both representations of monstrosity and the politics surrounding people of mixed-race. Drawing from Robert J.C. Young’s text Colonial Desire, ...

The glacial cycles of the Pleistocene have been recognized as important, large-scale historical processes that strongly
influenced the demographic patterns and genetic structure of many species. Here we present evidence ...

This thesis examines Janet Flanner, an expatriate writer whose fiction and
journalism have been essential to the development of American literary modernism in
that her work, taken together, comprises a remarkable ...

Transfer RNAs (tRNAs, key molecules in protein synthesis) have not been investigated as potential
prognostic markers in breast cancer (BC), despite early findings of their dysregulation and diagnostic
potential. We aim ...

Stress represents a critical influence on motor system function and has been shown to impair movement performance. We
hypothesized that stress-induced motor impairments are due to brain-specific changes in miRNA and ...

Bacterial infection has been linked to carcinogenesis, however, there is lack of knowledge of molecular mechanisms that
associate infection with the development of cancer. We analyzed possible effects of the consumption ...

When a human cell detects damaged DNA, it initiates the DNA damage response (DDR) that permits it to repair the damage and avoid transmitting it to daughter cells. Despite this response, changes to the genome occur and ...

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is a medicinal plant with potential
applications in the natural health product industry. In a multi-environmental setting, 10
genotypes were tested across 14 growing environments ...
